Have you ever been a victim of violence?
I know I have. And I know many of my friends who have been as well. Maybe after the #MeToo movement we realized the extension of the problem.
I am not going to get into statistics. They are sad anyway even to look at. I am just going to suggest some solutions.
Speak up
Don't shut up when someone hits you. Tell people. It's not shameful to ask for help.
Don't believe his lies
'I didn't mean it' - 'I won't do it again, I promise' - 'I love you'
Those are all LIES! The moment you realize he's never gonna change is the moment you will decide to...... -->
...Leave
Some women say they can't. Because financial reasons, or because they have kids they can't leave behind. With the right support you can do everything. Let the power get to you and then find the courage to leave.
...or, Hit back
Yeah. I know how it sounds. But NO. @steemsugars are not promoting violence. I know though situations that the only way out was to learn how to hit back. Don't stand still. ACT.

It takes courage to say NO
It takes courage to see that this is not the life a woman have envisioned
It takes courage to be able to say "stop".
You are not alone, for there are so many.
You are amazing - and that's exactly what I'm talking about... Love you girl :*
And u Loop..cheer ur face up😄😄😄
I did, didn't I? :P
this is a good initiative, very good...
Thank you girl - I felt some simple (and yet not so simple) stuff need to be said :/
Amen to this!! Violence is a subject that needs more airtime so I really appreciate this post. The more we speak up, the more we can support each other as well as educate about how prevalent violence against women still is all over the world. Thanks for this post!
I know it's a very simple post. I didn't have much time when writing it to put much more effort in it BUT I wanted it to be out there so I had to be fast AND I realized that this matter is indeed very simple: No violence against women, that's that. So thank you for approving, I think too I did well writing that even though brief!
Truth is, you are a good thinker AND a good writer so you can pull off a good piece even if brief :-)
Haha so I have the whole package?? :D Cool !!!! Thank you deary! ;) :*
